However, that seems to me like an exception that would require some ad-hoc ruling (possibly requiring the Animal Companion/Familiar/mount/whatever to take damage as well if he ends his movement in the area of effect). However, I don't think that refutes how reasonable my suggestion was, since I still believe that if a Druid and their Animal Companion both move the same distance and take the same action afterwards (like attack, or ready, or whatever) in the same 6-second period, I'd say it's reasonable to assume they stayed within 5-feet of each other. The battle system is abstract, but it still has to make sense. If the rules state that a round is 6 seconds, you can't exactly say that everyone takes their own 6-second round after everyone else, can you? How could a single round be 6 seconds in that case?</blockquote>
